Can’t rave about this place enough! Check in was a breeze. Staff incredibly friendly and helpful, especially Micheal and Erica. I felt well cared for during my entire stay. My room was clean and the view of the ocean was perfect. A gorgeous place with fun history. The hotel is located just a couple of blocks from commercial area of town so shopping and dining is not too far away. The on-site restaurant offers delicious menu choices and drink specials. They have it all and totally worth the stay

Luxury Carmel by the Sea

We had a very comfortable, enjoyable stay with attentive staff, quality amenities (WiFi included) and beautiful gardens. It's a classic,old hotel very well maintained and updated. The full complementary breakfast on the 2nd floor patio was delicious. There's also a manager's evening wine tasting in the lobby & homemade chocolate chip cookies and milk from 7-8pm. Not the hotels fault, but unfortunately, there was road construction being done on the corner from 8:30-4, so a bit extra noise. A personal request would be to have a sign at the pool for "No cellphones". There was a woman talking at length while we were trying to relax. There's parking on the street or a small lot next door. The beach is a short 3 blocks away with stunning views. They also offer free shuttle service to-from downtown shops/restaurants if you don't want to walk (~5 blocks) in the dark (very safe but no street lights) or have a disability.

Warm and Welcoming...Like home

Pros: It felt like home...quiet room....we were on the forth floor and it felt like we were in a tree house because of all the trees/birds out our windows
Cons: The bathroom was too small..
Location: Could walk to downtown, and they have a shuttle we used for a further reservation...great staff.
I would have given them a 5 if the bathroom had not been so small that you could not fully open the door. (It opened halfway and then hit the sink, so you had to close the door to use the sink.)

Outstanding!

What a fabulous 2 days were spent at this excellent hotel in Carmel. From the front desk staff, the room with a garden/ocean view, the before dinner wine tasting, the driving service into town & pick up!!!, turn down nightly service with chocolates, evening chocolate chip cookies & milk to the morning champagne breakfast...our stay couldn't have been any better! It was even better than OUTSTANDING! We also appreciated the kindness of the General Manager for having champagne in our room to celebrate my husbands retirement! This is a little piece of heaven! WE WILL RETURN!
